It's that time again!
I'm having leftover slow cooker chicken and biscuits with carrots. The best part? We had this for dinner last night and Wagon Jr. ATE THE CARROTS!! First real veggies in MONTHS. Joy.
-
yum! I just ate a falafel wrap and a cup of tomato basil soup. Even though Ive lived in NYC for 4 years, I JUST tried falafel (sweet sweet yummy food of the GODS) for the first time like a month ago and now I cant get enough. And Liv freaking lvoes it too. Win win!
-
Leftovers!
Grilled pork loin (marinated w/honey mustard, maple syrup, s&P & garlic salt), roasted sweet potatoes with fresh herbs & a hint of lime, savory stir fry arugula. -
@LivsMama: oh man, I love falafels!! Your lunch sounds yummy!
I'm still debating if I want to re-heat my leftovers (rice and pork chops) or get something else.
Edit: I ended up going down to the food court to get some egg drop soup.
-
Same thing as yesterday - chicken pasta salad, pita chips and some strawberries (at least the strawberries are new).
-
That sounds sooo yummy!
@LivsMama: Love falafel!
Whole wheat mac and cheese with peas mixed in.
-
Leftover pumpkin creamy pasta and a yogurt! I should try to eat my apple today too...
-
I'm on Spring Break this week (yay!) and DH is off today, so we went to our favorite local burger place and then to this amazing bakery next door! I AM going to the gym tonight...
-
I'm waiting until LO goes down for a nap but I'll be having a salad with tuna, corn, tomato, asparagus, and whatever else I can throw in there!
-
@mrs. wagon: sounds yum!! did you throw all of that in the slow cooker together?
i had a tuna sandwich on pumpernickel and a couple of triscuits. i am still hungry!!!!
-
@Andrea: It's a super easy recipe I found on allrecipes.com. Basically I put chicken breasts (still frozen), fat free cream of chicken soup, low sodium chicken broth, butter, and garlic and onion powder in and cooked on high for about 5 hours. (Usually I use a diced onion but didn't have any.) Then I put in sliced up pillsbury biscuits (the kind that comes in a metal roll). I cooked the (frozen) carrots separately and threw them in at the very end (I didn't want the biscuits to soak up the flavor of the carrots). SO DELICIOUS and pretty healthy too.
-
@mrs. wagon:
Still frozen and it cooks in 5 hours? That's a good one to have!And there's nothing healthy about those biscuit rolls!
Just like my beloved crescent rolls. I love those dang things.
-
@regberadaisy: yes!! I read it actually keeps the chicken more moist. Definitely worked in this case.
And yes, those biscuit rolls are the one thing I feel guilty about putting in
But I used all white meat chicken breast and low fat / sodium everything else. And I only used one roll of biscuits vs. two. I think they actually have reduced fat rolls of biscuits but I just bought the one on sale!
-
@mrs. wagon: awesome! i am definitely going to make that, thanks!
-
@Andrea: no prob! It's a crowd pleaser... such a comfort food. Wagon Sr. was drinking the sauce yesterday. Haha. It actually comes out more of a chicken stew.
-
@mrs. wagon:
blegh, reduced fat biscuits. If I'm getting those dang things it's go big or go home! hahah. Can you share the link?
-
@regberadaisy: hehe oh yeah! here it is. And oops, it's chicken and dumplings, not biscuits!
I did 6 chicken breasts, 2 cans of ff cream of chicken, 2 cans of low sodium chicken broth (instead of water), garlic powder, onion powder, omitted the onion cuz I didn't have one... 1 can of biscuit dough, and a package of frozen baby carrots.
-
Egg salad sandwich and a plum. I can't wait! Putting those leftover hardboiled Easter eggs to good use
-
Leftovers! Whole wheat spaghetti with homemade pasta sauce with ground turkey!
-
Leftover home-made fresh pasta and mushroom ragout.
Yesterday's pasta thread had me craving fresh pasta, so I made some for dinner.
-
gonna make a salad. waiting for our fresh direct delivery to come soon. arugula and baby spinach is coming!
-
I have a friend coming into town for lunch, we are heading out for AYCE Sushi! Yum!
-
tuna salad sandwich. I'll enjoy it until TTC works!
-
I brought a lean cuisine for lunch. Then promptly went to the on-site cafeteria and bought a grilled chicken sandwich with lettuce, pickles and honey mustard, made a small salad and grabbed a brownie. Best decision ever!
-
I went to Whole Foods and grabbed some food from the salad/hot foods bar. And then dropped by Smoothie King and picked up a smoothie
-
I made veggie sushi at home. Mmmm.
-
tuna with grapes, celery and a bit of mayo on top of romaine lettuce - it was yummy!
-
I had some cheese slices and turkey. I followed that with a Reese's egg.
-
@Leialou: Am I the only one who didn't buy Reece's eggs this Easter?!
I love eating turkey + cheese + crackers! -
@chopsuey119: 50% off at cvs now!! heehee
I MISS TURKEY
-
@mrs. wagon: HAHAHAHA crap.. there's a cvs literally 2 blocks from my house. i MIGHT drive over when LO wakes from her nap....
-
@chopsuey119: DO IT, you don't want to miss out!! they might sell out!! hehe.
For some reason the eggs seem less unhealthy than the regular peanut butter cups... of course I am fooling myself........
-
@mrs. wagon: Eggs are so deadly. I can never just have one.. I'd need at least 6 to feel satisfied..
-
@chopsuey119 probably! They come 6 in a pack!
-
@mrs. wagon: are you talking big eggs or the tiny ones?! why am I thinking little..?
-
@Leialou: @chopsuey119: they do?? (we just bought the big bag... ackkkkkk)
-
@chopsuey119: I'm talking the reese's peanut butter eggs... yellow packaging... tastes just like the pb cups.
-
I've been avoiding the Easter candy in my house, so I needed something good for lunch. Made a huge bowl of German potato salad, snacked on that and the leftover bacon.
Thinking Easter candy might have been better for me. -
@mrs. wagon: Ohhhhhh I totally though you were talking about these!

@mrs.wagon they sure do. They are bigger than the ones that come in the bag.
Just like my beloved crescent rolls. I love those dang things.
But I used all white meat chicken breast and low fat / sodium everything else. And I only used one roll of biscuits vs. two. I think they actually have reduced fat rolls of biscuits but I just bought the one on sale!
